Oh come on, CB. You know there’s nothing in the bible that says virgins getting pregnant and having Sons of God is the same as Ishtar worship.

That’s bunk.

>>You know there’s nothing in the bible that says virgins getting pregnant and having Sons of God is the same as Ishtar worship.<<

Jeremiah 7:18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.

Who was that "queen of heaven"?

Jeremiah 44:17 But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth out of our own mouth, to burn incense unto the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, as we have done,

Who was that "queen of heaven"?

Ezekiel 8:13 And He said to me, "Yet you will see still greater abominations which they are committing." 14 Then he brought me to the entrance of the north gate of the house of the LORD, and I saw women sitting there, mourning the god Tammuz.

Who was Tammuz the son of?

If you don't know the answers to those questions how do you know what to avoid that God called "abominations"? "Bunk" you say?
